Zizou Junior Stars Between the Sticks

Young goalkeeper Luca Zidane, one of four sons of Zinedine in the Real Madrid academy, produced a string of saves to earn the man-of-the match award in last weekend’s Alkass Cup game with Manchester City.

Enzo, Luca, Theo, and little Eliaz are all part of Los Blancos youth system. Shot-stopper Luca has been making a name for himself with recent performances and earned the plaudits again as he captained Real Madrid to a 1-0 win over Manchester City in the Under-17 tournament in Doha.

Zizou is the Sporting Director and Carlo Ancelotti’s assistant at the Bernabeu where eldest son Enzo, a member of the Under-18 team, has trained with the senior side and is tipped for stardom. He may soon be joined by his siblings.
